Audio Track Height

PostSun Aug 02, 2015 12:04 pm

Hi Guys, I'm new to DaVinci - using 11 at the moment. I'm struggling to find a way to adjust the height of the audio waveform in the source viewer.

The sound level is good, I don't want to increase the level, but it's visibly tiny so I can't see the peaks etc.

In other editors I'd just increase the track height, but can't find how to do it in DaVinci.

Any pointers much appreciated.

On the Edit page, in the lower right corner, the little filmstrip looking icon, to the left the musical note icon, is the Timeline View Options button.

In that, you can adjust the height of the audio and video tracks.

You can also enable/disable the display of the audio waveforms inside the audio track.

Dwaine,
Video Track Height and Audio Track Height really should have shortcuts assigned to them.
Coming from Adobe Premiere, this is something greatly missed. That, and using the ~ to expand panels full frame.

That was version 15. In version 16, it's here:

Does anyone know how to set the audio track height to default to a larger size? Now in 17, the default is quite small and I can no longer see the waveforms until I manually adjust the audio track height. Since I commonly deliver both broadcast and web level deliverables its great to have the large track always visible so I can quickly see the waveforms and make sure which mix is active. Not a huge deal but this was the behavior before 17 so was wondering if this option is now available.
